schott did a new peacoat - a denim one. very nice, but not a new idea.
look at the MFSC denim pecoat 6284 pre wash pic. SO GREAT!
the pic is from march 2009; you can find more on the COTTON DUCK
site. and take a look at the actual fall 2010 MFSC collection: there
is another early pattern peacoat which is called the MIDNIGHT
P-JACKET, made of 16 oz. indigo black denim (aka “midnight twill”).pics | Cotton Duck, MFSC, ACL

back from summer holidays, i found the new brand TAYLOR SUPPLY. they promise
“to always stay true to their roots, using 1920's and 1950' as inspiration, when
america was characterised by rugged individualism, industrial innovation and entrepreneurship”.
all products are produced and made in new york city: taylor-supply.compics | Taylor Supply

holiday time - just for 7 days. going to sylt the awesome german island
in the north sea. i remembered a song about westerland, the biggest
village on this island, by DIE ÄRZTE a famous german punk rock band.
my god the song and the video below is from 1988: terrific! nice gimmick:
the guitar of singer and lead guitarist FARIN URLAUB has the shape
of the island - he played it on live gigs this time.

damn, i own 3 pairs of these - they are my favourite summer shoes.
no socks, no compromise. bleeding foot for one week but then: walking
to the end of the world! next summer there will be two other colours
and leathers; seen on RED WING 1905. and they are looking damn
pretty nice. 5 pairs. hm, for every working day another one. freaky?
i think so ...pics | http://redwing1905.blogspot.com by fred
